What Is Video Localization?
Video localization is the process of making your video content appealing to people across languages, territories, and cultures so that it indirectly speaks to a global audience. This is normally composed of:
-
Interpretation of words, either spoken or written, into the target language
-
Putting subtitles in other languages or doing voiceovers so it can be understood
-
Modifying the images, faces, or styles to be used according to the cultural inclination/norms
Localization is similar to translation, but it is not the same at all. It is also about making your content look like something native to the viewers in the other areas.
